Policy briefing 006, 'Universal basic income: A necessary but not sufficient response to crisis', explores the social, economic and political implications of implementing some form of Universal Basic Income, both as an immediate response to the COVID-19 crisis and as a more permanent policy solution to a number of problems, from rising poverty and inequality to the transition to a more automated economy with fewer jobs.
